1. Avisos de seguretat
To prevent electrical shock or harm to the human body, please read this manual carefully before using this instrument to test AC voltage. Failure to do so may render all protection functions ineffective.
- Comprovació prèvia al funcionament: Before operation, do not turn on or attempt to use this instrument without first reading these instructions. Always test the device on a known live AC cable to ensure it is functioning correctly.
- Voltage Detection Considerations: If the instrument does not produce sound or display on the screen, AC/DC voltage may still be present. This instrument detects the electrical field strength of AC signals. If the signal is blocked by shielding covers or thick insulation, high voltage may still exist. The detection distance for AC signals (e.g., inside walls or metal ducts) may be affected.
- Danys i mal funcionament: Do not use a damaged or malfunctioning instrument. Pay attention to the test pin. If any part is broken or cracked, return it to the manufacturer for repair.
- Voltage Límits: No aplicar voltage exceeding the marked range of 1000V AC.
- Perill de descàrrega elèctrica: Exercise caution when detecting AC voltage above 36V due to the risk of electrical shock.
- Compliment: Always comply with local and national safety regulations and rules to protect the end user.

4. Instruccions de funcionament
4.1 Encès/Apagat
- Encès: Press and hold the 'Power On/Off' key for more than one second. The power indicator will illuminate.
- Apagar: Briefly press the 'Power On/Off' key once. The power indicator will turn off.
4.2 AC Voltage Detecció (NCV)
Insert the tester's probe into an AC power socket or position it near an AC wire. The tester will detect AC voltage signals and provide relevant alarms.
- The signal strength indicator lights on the LCD screen will illuminate according to the detected signal strength.
- A buzzer will emit beeping sounds with varying frequencies; stronger signals result in higher frequency beeps.
- The LCD screen will display a bar chart indicating signal strength.
- When the detected AC voltage signal reaches the highest strength, the screen will turn red. For lower strengths, the screen may show green.

4.3 Live/Null Wire Detection
The tester can automatically identify live or neutral wires based on signal strength.
- Cable en directe: When the tester detects a strong AC signal, it indicates a live wire. The screen will typically turn red, and the alarm frequency will be higher.
- Null Wire: When the tester detects a weaker or no AC signal, it indicates a null wire. The screen may show green or green/red, and the alarm frequency will be lower or absent.

4.4 Breakpoint Detection
To locate a breakpoint in a wire, move the NCV tip along the insulated wire. The voltage alarm signal will weaken or disappear at the point of the break.

4.5 Funcionament de la llanterna
- Activar: Press the 'Torch On/Off' key to activate the flashlight.
- Apagar: While the flashlight is on, press the 'Torch On/Off' key once to turn it off.

4.6 Ajust de sensibilitat
If the detected signal is very weak, you can adjust the sensitivity:
- Press the 'Sensitivity Adjustment Key' to switch to the high-sensitivity mode. This allows for detection of weaker AC voltage senyals.
Image: The tester indicating 'Sensitivity gear 5'.
4.7 Funció de transmissió de veu
The ANENG VC1019 features a voice broadcast function that announces detection results.

5. Manteniment
5.1 Neteja
Wipe the exterior of the tester with a clean, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these may damage the casing o components interns.
5.2 Substitució de la bateria
When the 'low battery' symbol is displayed on the screen, the current battery level is low, and measurement results may be inaccurate. Replace the batteries promptly following the instructions in Section 3. The tester uses two 1.5V AAA batteries.
5.3 Emmagatzematge
Store the tester in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. If storing for an extended period, remove the batteries to prevent leakage.
